A room with a view.

Here's my view for today!

Not very pretty?  But it's a lot prettier than it was last night.

I know you're going to ask me what happened?  Well, I don't know.  One minute I was talking on the phone to my nephew about the two new, far too cute for words puppies that he bought, without my sister (who is away on a cruise) knowing.  And the next minute I had a horrible pain in my foot, and shortly after that a hugely swollen ankle.

I should really say I was in training for a marathon, or out disco dancing (does anybody still go out 'disco dancing'??) but I think I was just unlucky and put my foot down the wrong way.

I was also unlucky to have had my 'injury' when all the health clinics were closed for the night, so I had to spend the night in the A&E in Tallaght hospital.

I'm not going to tell you how I got on there, because you would never want to read anything I write here again if I did.  But just lets say it's not something I ever want to go through again.

But, there is an up side to this.

I have to lie here on the couch all day, so that gives me plenty of time to look at all the pictures of cute puppies that my nephew is posting on Facebook.

Here's one for you too look at:

And here's another one:

And another one:

If only I didn't have this stupid bandage on my ankle then I could drive to Cork and give those two a cuddle and that would make me feel better.

Of course if anybody would like to come over with chocolate, or cake, that would make me feel a whole lot better too...
